  • You might also take a look at Nisus Writer Express. I find it more intuitive to use than either Word or Pages and it has rtf as its native format so it is automatically compatible with Word. The lastest version is still in beta testing but it seems …

  • Would you care to be more specific about what you would like to change? Aqua is really a set of user interface guidelines. There is nothing forcing programs to use them, however your ability to prevent programs from using them is pretty limited. You…

  • Quote: Originally posted by mikef I need the ability to keep two iPhoto libraries sync'd. I have been thinking about this. Will it work to use some sync program like Synchronize Pro? I suppose one would have to be careful not to use both liba…

  • Quote: Originally posted by craftymacgirl Should I just burn em to a disk and import them that way? You could do that, or you could export all of the images in one library to a folder someplace and then import them to the other library. I too …

  • I personally am fine with Pages feature list. My problems are bugs and interface problems. WRT bugs, it is not like it crashes or anything, but there are problems with tabs (sometimes the tabs you set just don't seem to "take"), and the other day I …
    in Does Apple Pages Suck? Comment by jbl July 2005
  • iPhoto should be on the iLife disk. The way I have seen this problem occur is if people take Apple applications out of the Applications folder and put them someplace else (e.g., a subfolder of the Applications folder). If you then update, Apple's…

  • Is WebObjects based on Cocoa? I am trying to figure out how opening it would help Apple in the enterprise space. What prevents people from porting it to Windows or Linux, which would neutralize any advantage it gives Apple?

  • No. I recently bought a PowerBook. I figure there will be problems with the first Mactels. Not with the operating system itself. I am betting a lot of apps will not be ready for the transition, or will have bugs. People are not going to be able to b…

  • Quote: Originally posted by NaturalElement I just ordered Tiger today and my order detail says: "OS X V10.4.2 "TIGER" RETAIL-INT" So I guess its not only Canadian store. It also says that it will ship "on or before June 13th" I order…

  • Is the idea that you carry the entire iPhoto Library on the flash drive or that you transfer pictures using the flash drive? My iPhoto Library is about 30 Gb. I haven't seen any flash drives that big. Actually, it would be nice of iPhoto let you arc…

  • I have the same problem syncing things (including my iPhoto library) between computers. What I used to do was carry a portable firewire drive around and keep all my files on that. The advantage was it was very portable and could be connected to any …
